Apartment rents begin to recover in high-supply metros
This story was originally published on Multifamily Dive. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily Multifamily Dive newsletter. The national average multifamily rent rose by $6 from April to May, up to $1,761, according to Yardi Matrix's latest National Multifamily Report. Year-over-year rent growth held steady at 1.0%, a point from which it has barely moved over the past year. At the major metro level, rent growth remains strongest in the Northeast and Midwest. New York City still leads YOY rent growth at 5.7%, followed by Kansas City, Missouri, at 4.0%. Austin, Texas, remains at the bottom at -5.2%, followed by Denver at -3.5% and Phoenix at -3.4%. However, on a month-over-month basis, Western and Sun Belt metros with historically high deliveries and declining rents — including Denver, San Francisco, Dallas and Austin — saw positive growth in May. In Austin, which saw a 9.1% increase in supply this year, rents rose by 0.2% in May, or $3. This follows a more than $200 price drop in the city over the past two years, according to Yardi. Market YOY rent growth, May 2025 YOY rent growth, April 2025 Difference 5.7% 5.8% -0.1 4.0% 3.5% 0.5 3.4% 3.6% -0.2 3.3% 3.7% -0.4 3.1% 3.3% -0.2 3.1% 3.0% 0.1 3.0% 2.4% 0.6 2.8% 3.2% -0.4 2.7% 2.7% 0 2.2% 2.5% -0.3 SOURCE: Yardi Matrix The national occupancy rate fell slightly in April to 94.4%. (Occupancy data is current to the previous month.) While a heavy supply pipeline is causing occupancy to slip in some metros, strong demand counterbalances the impact, according to Yardi. Single-family rents rose by $3 over the same period, up to $2,183, according to the report. Following weaker performance over the winter, BTR rents have now risen four months in a row, and are close to the all-time high average of $2,185 set in May 2024. Despite uncertainty in the economy and financial markets, fundamentals remained strong for multifamily in May, according to Yardi. The impact of tariffs on the market is uncertain, but economic and renter financial health are solid, with 177,000 jobs added in April and wages growing faster than inflation or rent. 'The impact (good or bad) to the economy of the administration's policies — including higher tariffs, federal layoffs and cuts to or elimination of grant programs for segments including health care, scientific research and education — will likely not show up in data for months or quarters into the future,' the report states. 'But for now, the market is guardedly optimistic.'

Yardi and Nova Credit Bring Financial Inclusion to Resident Screening with Cash Atlas Integration
Yardi's incorporation of cash flow scoring into its screening solution enables insight into creditworthy renters excluded by traditional credit checks SANTA BARBARA, Calif., June 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Yardi® announced the integration of Nova Credit's cash flow underwriting solution, Cash Atlas™, into its ScreeningWorks® Pro platform. This enables property managers to approve previously credit-invisible applicants by evaluating their ability to pay through bank data rather than traditional credit data alone. The collaboration addresses a critical gap, as 49 million Americans, or 19% of the adult population, are either credit invisible or have an insufficient credit history for traditional scoring, according to research conducted by Oliver Wyman. This lack of traditional credit data has historically excluded millions of qualified applicants from rental housing, including gig workers, recent graduates, immigrants and young professionals, who demonstrate financial responsibility through their banking behavior rather than traditional credit products. In contrast, according to the FDIC, 95.5% of U.S. households have bank accounts, providing transaction data that can be used to assess their financial risk more accurately. This integration marks the first at-scale application of cash flow data in tenant screening, representing a significant shift in how the rental industry evaluates applicants. Over 6 million units using ScreeningWorks Pro can now transition to more objective and inclusive assessment methods. "Traditional credit data misses a population of financially responsible renters who simply haven't used credit products or haven't used them long enough," says Patrick Hennessey, vice president at Yardi. "Cash flow data provides a full financial picture, which is more predictive of their ability to pay rent on time. This gives our clients the ability to approve more applicants while maintaining rigorous risk assessment standards." For property management companies, the integration offers: Enhanced risk assessment: Access to real-time financial data that provides more accurate payment prediction than traditional credit data alone Access to new markets: Ability to serve growing renter segments, including gig workers, young professionals and new-to-country residents Expanded applicant pool: Connection to 49 million credit-invisible Americans, reducing vacancy rates and accelerating unit fills For rental applicants, the benefits include: Fair financial evaluation: Assessment based on actual ability to pay rent through verified and up-to-date bank data, not historic credit history Expanded housing access: Opportunities for responsible renters who are building credit "We're helping property managers discover qualified renters within their existing applicant pool — renters they previously would have missed based on traditional credit data," said Akaash Gupta, head of tenant screening partnerships at Nova Credit. "This is a competitive advantage in any rental market and offers a fairer view of what it means to be a 'qualified' applicant."
